remarkable. We incline to the opinion
that he is a natural bird" and that his

day night, at half past 0 O'Clock. Deputy
Sheriff Rives went to lock the boy in his
cell. but not seeing him, supposed he had
fallen asleep on his bed. as prisoners often
do. As Rives opened the solid. iron door,
inside of the corridor, Grant, who had
been hiding behind it, rose suddenly and
threw some cayenne pepper in his face,
which momeniarily blinded him. Rives
grabbed the boys sleeve as the latter pushed
and dashed by him, but suffering from the
effects OF the pepper and almost blinded as
Hives was, Grant managed to get on to the
street. Sheriff Sweeney was in front OF

Kicked the Wrong Man.

A few nights ago a young chap in Car
son dressed himself up in his roommate's
clothes and called on his roommase's girl.
He thought il was an awful nice joke on
the girl as he sat on the steps in the twi-
light. with his left arm around her as he
chuckled TO think OF his roommate down
town oblivious of the joke. Just then the
father Of the girl came on the scene. He
was completely fooled, for, thinking il
WAS the other man, he kicked the bold rover
off the steps and along the street.

of Mrs. Lyons to obtain possession
of the estate of her deceased hus'
band, from whom she had been sep

finally decided yesterday. The case
was mentioned in these dispatches
a few days since. The family OF
the deceased man disputed her
marriage, and Mrs. Lyons nearly
lost her case, but was finally ena
bled to produce record evidence OF
the marriage. The priest who per-
formed the ceremony WAN also pres
ent. The wife twore that they were
married in 1866 in st. Louis, ana
that Lyons deserted her after Inc
birth of their daughter, a young
lady now, twenty.one years OF age,
who was also present in court. The
evidence was so conclusive that the
attorneys for the defence were not
inclined to argue the case before the
Jury, and when Mrs. Lyons found
that verdict would be returned
for her without effort she generous
ly notified the court that she wanted
to give her sisters.ln-law $4,000, and
AN order was made to this effect
When this announcement was made
LYONS sisters gathered around the
widow and declared that the testi'
mony had been ample; that they
had no doubt of the marriage ol
their brother, and that hereafter
they would all be sisters to each
other. Mrs. Lyons aud her daugh
ter were very much affected, and
emotion was visible in many part'
of the room. The estate is wortl
